Roman Reigns has finally returned to WWE SmackDown and has wasted no time taking out his frustrations on Solo Sikoa’s Bloodline.

At SummerSlam, Roman Reigns made his long-awaited return to WWE during Cody Rhodes’ Undisputed WWE Title match against Solo Sikoa. This was the first time Reigns had been seen since losing that title to Rhodes at WrestleMania 40 but he was not looking to settle the score with The American Nightmare.

Instead, Reigns clearly took issue with Solo Sikoa anointing himself as The Tribal Chief and wiped Sikoa out which ultimately allowed Rhodes to pick up the win.

Roman Reigns Wipes Out Bloodline

Now on SmackDown in Tulsa, Roman Reigns has made his presence felt on WWE’s blue brand once again. Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Tonga Loa held court in the ring with Sikoa still referring to himself as The Tribal Chief while wearing the ula fala around his neck.

This drew out Reigns who wiped out Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa in short order. Roman Reigns then nailed Solo Sikoa with a superman punch which knocked the ula fala from around his neck but before Reigns could recover it, Tonga and Loa attacked once again.

Tama Tonga received a spear through the barricade for his trouble before Reigns wore Tonga Loa out with a steel chair to end the show.

Earlier in the night, Solo Sikoa failed to convince Cody Rhodes he should get a rematch for the WWE Championship and it looks like he’ll be set for a long feud with Reigns moving forward.
